I  H   C   GASOLINE   ENGINES 

The  I  H  C  line  of  gasoline  engines  offers  unequalled  opportunity  for  selecting  efficient  and  economical  power.  This 
line  includes  engines  of  almost  every  type  and  size  adapted  to  farm,  shop,  and  mill  use,  and  every  engine  is  characterized 
by  simple  and  durable  construction. 

Every  feature  of  I  H  C  gasoline  engines  is  the  result  of  years  of  thorough  and  conscientious  investigation  of  every 
phase  of  engine  construction.  No  effort  has  been  spared  to  make  these  engines  simple,  reliable,  and  capable  of  utilizing  fuel 
to  the  greatest  possible  advantage. 

STRENGTH — To  be  a  profitable  investment  a  gasoline  engine  must  be  so  constructed  that  it  will  last  for  many 
years.  The  use  of  high-grade  material  alone  is  not  sufficient  to  insure  this.  The  different  parts  of  the  engine  must  be  con- 
structed strong  enough  and  heavy  enough  to  withstand  the  strain  under  which  they  operate.  The  designers  of  I  H  C  engines 
have  made  a  careful  study  of  this  subject  and  the  result  is  that  I  H  C  engines  are  properly  proportioned  throughout — not  too 
heavy — not  clumsy — but  neat,  attractive,  and  equal  to  any  emergency. 

SIMPLICITY — Everyone  appreciates  the  fact  that  simplicity  of  design  in  any  machine  is  highly  desirable,  but 
few  realize  how  difficult  it  is  to  attain.  The  absence  of  all  unnecessary  or  comphcated  parts  on  I  H  C  engines  makes  them 
very  easy  to  operate,  start,  or  stop.  It  also  eliminates,  to  a  great  extent,  the  possibility  of  the  engine  getting  out  of  order, 
and  makes  repairing,  when  necessary,  a  simple  matter.  The  simphcity  of  I  H  C  engines  contributes  largely  towards  their 
popularity  as  it  makes  it  possible  for  even  an  ine.xpericnced  person  to  operate  them. 

EC0A'03IY — Every  effort  has  been  made  in  designing  and  constructing  I  H  C  engines  to  insure  a  proper  utilization 
of  fuel.  The  pistons  are  accurately  fitted  and  are  provided  with  lap  joint  piston  rings  which  prevent  any  loss  of  compression, 
as  a  loss  of  compression  would  mean  a  loss  of  power.  The  explosive  charge  which  is  used  to  drive  the  piston  in  a  gasohne 
engine  is  a  mixture  of  vaporized  gasoline  and  air.  The  proportions  in  which  these  are  mixed  determines  to  a  considerable 
degree  the  economy  and  effectiveness  of  the  engine.  The  mixers  used  on  I  H  C  engines  have  received  careful  attention 
and  are  so  constructed  that  liquid  fuel  is  not  forced  into  the  cylinder  and  wasted,  but  a  properly  proportioned  atomized 
mixture  is  fed  into  the  cylinder  at  the  right  time  to  insure  maximum  power  from  the  resulting  explosion. 

RELIABILITY — The  material  used  in  the  construction  of  I  H  C  engines  is  the  best  procurable  and  they  are 
built  by  workmen  who  thoroughly  understand  engine  construction.  A  very  extensive  system  of  testing  and  inspection  is 
used  in  the  factory  where  I  H  C  engines  are  constructed.     From  the  time  the  raw  material  is  received  until  it  reaches  the 


^^^-^^tSX^-^i 


(S^^f^^^ 


final  inspecting  room,  it  receives  many  rigid  chemical  and  physical  tests.  Through  all  the  course  of  manufacture  the 
various  parts  of  the  engines  are  examined  by  the  most  exacting  inspectors.  When  the  completed  engines  reach  the  final  inspec- 
tion room  they  are  subjected  to  a  severe  running  test  under  the  supervision  of  the  master  inspector.  Here  the  engines  are 
run  under  conditions  that  would  be  sure  to  bring  out  the  slightest  defect  and  cause  their  rejection.  The  result  is  that 
it  is  well  nigh  impossible  for  an  I  H  C  engine  that  is  not  absolutely  up  to  standard  to  reach  the  salesroom  or  purchaser. 

ADAPTABILITY — Not  only  have  I  H  C  gasoline  engines  been  constructed  with  a  general  aim  towards  effi- 
ciency and  reliability,  but  different  engines  in  the  line  have  been  developed  for  special  purposes.  There  are  engines  built 
for  general,  farm,  and  shop  use,  and  also  engines  designed  to  fill  the  requirements  of  those  wishing  power  especially  adapted 
to  their  particular  needs.     In  the  I  H  C  line  will  be  found  engines  of  from  1  to  4.5-horse  power  and  in  a  great  variety  of  styles, 

REPAIRS — One  of  the  great  advantages  of  I  H  C  engines  lies  in  the  fact  that  all  parts  are  perfectly  interchange- 
able. Accidental  breakage  never  throws  an  I  H  C  engine  out  of  commission  for  any  length  of  time  as  repairs  can  always 
and  easily  be  secured. 

The  following  pages  are  devoted  to  a  detailed  description  and  explanation  of  the  various  engines  in  this  line. 


OPERATION  OF  FOUR-CYCLE  ENGINES 

The  operation  of  the  large  majority  of  internal  combustion  engines  is  based  upon  the  same  principle,  termed  "four-cycle." 
The  theorj^  was  first  formulated  by  M.  Beau  de  Rochas  in  1862  and  requires  four  strokes  of  the  piston,  as  follows:  The  first 
outward  stroke  draws  through  the  intake  valve  a  charge  of  the  fuel  automatically  mixed  with  air  in  the  right  proportion.  At 
the  end  of  the  stroke  the  valve  closes  and  the  return  of  the  piston  compresses  the  charge.  Just  before  the  dead  center  the 
electric  ignitor  is  snapped,  which  produces  a  spark  in  the  cylinder,  exploding  the  gas.  The  second  outward  movement  of  the 
piston  is  the  power  stroke,  at  the  end  of  which  the  exhaust  valve  is  opened.  On  the  return  of  the  piston  the  burnt  gases  are 
expelled  and  the  cycle  of  operations  is  completed.  It  will  be  noted  that  one  explosion  is  obtained  for  every  two  revolutions 
of  the  fly  wheels. 

I  H  C  engines  are  of  this  four-cycle  type.  But  there  are  many  two-cycle  engines  also.  The  two-cycle  engine  requires 
onl}'  two  strokes  or  one  revolution  of  its  fly  wheel  for  each  impulse.  The  incoming  charge  necessarily  mixes  somewhat  with 
the  burned  gases  not  yet  thoroughly  driven  out,  and  for  this  reason  the  two-cycle  engine  is  neither  as  economical  nor  as  reli- 
able as  the  four-cycle  engine.  However,  the  two-cycle  is  used  extensively  and  to  good  advantage  under  many  different  con- 
ditions, particularly  in  marine  engine  construction.

The  I  H  C  Mc-tor  horizontal  engine  is  a  strong,  simple, 
and  reliable  engine,  adaptable  to  many  uses  on  the  farm  and 
in  the  shop  and  mill.  It  is  successfully  used  for  threshing, 
filling  silos,  grinding  feed,  sawing,  pumping,  irrigating,  oper- 
ating grain  elevators,  grist  and  feed  mills,  hoisting  plants, 
pumping  stations,  and  for  all  power  purposes  to  whieh  an 
engine  of  this  size  is  adapted. 

It  is  never  necessary  to  have  an  open  flame  near  this 
engine,  and  therefore  permission  may  be  obtained  to  use 
it  in  an  insured  building. 

This  engine  is  regularly  equipped  for  using  gasoline,  but 
with  slight  alterations,  natural  or  artificial  gas,  alcohol,  or 
kerosene  mav  be  used.

CYLINDER  AND  HEAD — The  cylinder  and  water  jacket  are  cast  integral  and  ample  space  is  allowed  for  a  free 
circulation  to  the  cooling  water.  The  jacket  may  be  opened  at  both  ends,  which  makes  it  easy  to  clean.  The  cylinder  and  head 
arc  both  cast  from  a  special  ciuality  of  close-grained  iron.  Four  or  six  large  studs,  depending  upon  the  size  of  the  engine, 
are  of  use  to  hold  the  cvlindcr  firmly 


to  the  engine  base. 


'fiSB 


Piston  and  Lap  Joint  Piston  Rings 


The  water  jackets  of  the  cylinder  and  head  register,  which  allows  the 
cooling  water  to  flow  around  the  valve  seats  and  parts  in  the  head.  This  is 
very  necessary  in  the  case  of  the  exhaust  valve,  because  the  exhaust  gases 
are  extremely  hot  and  would  damage  the  valve  if  it  were  not  thoroughly 
cooled. 

COMPRESSION— The  atomized  fuel  in  the  cylinder  is  highly 
compressed,  so  that  a  powerful  explosion  results.  Every  precaution  is 
taken  to  prevent  loss  of  compression,  as  this  would  result  in  loss  of  power. 
The  valves  seat  properly  and  the  piston  rings  fit  snugly. 


<^>^^ 


PISTON  AND  WRIST  PIN— 

The  piston  is  of  the  triinlc  ty]ie  and  extra 
long  to  insure  ample  wearing  surface  on  the 
cyhndcr.  It  is  as  long  as  the  stroke  and 
the  wrist  pin  is  at  the  center  instead  of  at 
the  end  so  that  the  piston  can  not  wear  to 
a  taper.  The  wrist  pin  has  an  unusually 
long  and  large  wearing  surface.  A  sup- 
plemental wrist  pin  oiler  keeps  the  pin  thor-  |;, 
oughly  oiled  so  that  it  is  never  necessary  ' 
to  run  with  a  dry  pin.  This  greatly  reduces 
wear.  The  wrist  pin  is  held  securely  in 
place  by  two  set-screws  with   lock  nuts. 

Lap  joint  piston  rings,  ground  to  an 
exact  diameter,  prevent  loss  of  compression 
past  the  piston. 

CRANK  SHAFT  AND  MAIN 
BEARINGS— The  smaller  size  crank 
shafts  are  drop-forged.     The  larger  sizes  are      _  "''"  ^'"^  "'  Horizontal  Engine 

forged  from  solid,  open  hearth  steel  billets,  without  welds  of  any  kind.     They  are  interchangeable.     The   proportions    are 

liberal  and  adeciuate  to  the  strain  under  which  these  parts  work. 
Large  diameter  of  the  crank  pin  gives  amjjle  wearing  surface. 

The  crank  shaft  bearings  are  phosphor  bronze — the  best 
known  anti-friction  metal.  This  metal  is  very  close-grained 
and   docs  not  cut  or  wear  the  parts  working  in  it. 

The  I  H  C  bearings  are  extra  heavy  and  long,  machine 
finished,  and  hand-scraped  to  a  perfect  fit.  They  are  thor- 
oughly lubricated  by  oil  cups  of  large  diameter. 

Cranii  Sliaft 

CONNECTING  ROD— The  steel  connecting  rod 
is  drop-forged, carefully  machined  and  polished.  Adivided  box 
securely  bolted  to  the  connecting  rod  is  used  in  the  crank  end. 
Whenever  necessary,  this  box  can  be  removed  without  remov- 
ing piston  or  wrist  pin.  The  wrist  pin  bearing  has  a  phosphor 
bronze  bushing  which  can  be  adjusted  by  the  bolts  in  the  head.  Connecting  Bod

INLET  VALVE— The  inlet  valve  is  steel,  of  the 
poppet  type.    It  is  large  to  permit  a  ready  ingress  of  the  fuel. 

INLET  VALVE  CHECK— The  inlet  valve 
check  is  one  of  the  most  economical  features  of  I  HC  engines, 
because  this  check  keeps  the  intake  valve  automatically 
closed  in  cases  where  a  speed  above  normal  is  attained. 
In  such  cases  the  exhaust  valve  is  held  open  for  the  time, 
but  no  fuel  is  admitted  to  the  cylinder  and  wasted.  Let- 
ters patent  have  been  granted  to  the  International  Har- 
vester Company  on  this  remarkably  effective  arrangement. 

EXHAUST  VALVE— The  exhaust  valve  is  of 
the  most  durable  construction,  having  a  steel  stem  and  cast 
iron  head.  The  seat  is  removable — a  desirable  feature, 
for,  if  the  seat  should  become  pitted  by  the  hot  gases,  an 
entirely  new  cylinder  head  would  not  be  required. 

VALVE  MECHANISM— The  valve  mechanism 
operates  in  a  straight  line.  There  are  no  delicate  connec- 
tions to  get  out  of  adjustment  or  cause  friction.  All  parts  of 
the  mechanism  are  made  of  a  high-grade  steel  with  large 
wearing  surfaces  wherever  necessary. 

GOVERNOR— The  hit-and-miss  style  of  gov- 
ernor is  used  on  the  I  H  C  engine.  This  method  is  sensitive 
in  regulation  and  reduces  fuel  consumption  to  a  minimum. 
It  so  operates  that  when  the  speed  is  above  normal  the  inlet 
valve  is  held  closed  to  prevent  fuel  entering  the  cylinder, 
and  the  exhaust  valve  is  held  open  to  insure  cleaning  of 
the  cylinder. 

The  method  of  operation  is  as  follows:  When  above  speed,  the  arm  from  the  governor  balls  pulls  the  sleeve  "C" 
outward,  as  shown  in  the  illustration.  The  beveled  portion  presses  upward  on  the  roller  "D,"  causing  the  detent  arm 
"E"  to  move  downward.  When  the  long  side  of  the  exhaust  cam  presses  the  roller  at  the  end  of  rod  "H"  outward,  the 
detent  arm  "E"  engages  a  notch  at  "F,"  holding  the  exhaust  valve  open  until  the  speed  is  reduced  to  normal.  The  sleeve  "C" 
moving  back  allows  the  detent  lever  to  disengage  "F"  and  the  cycle  of  operation  is  again  taken  up.  The  spur  pinion  "B" 
on  the  crank  shaft  engages  with  "A,"  a  spur  gear  of  twice  its  diameter,  thus  reducing  the  speed  of  the  exhaust  cam,  so  that  the 
exhaust  valve  is  open  every  other  revolution.  Likewise,  the  ignitor  is  snapped  by  the  rod  "G"  through  the  movement  of  the 
eccentric  on  the  half  speed  shaft.

STARTING — The  I    H    C  engine  is  easy  to  start  because  a  small  auxiliary  cam  on  the  exhaust  cam  can  be  thrown 
in    to   engage   the   roller   and  relieve  compression.       When    the    roller    is    thrown    back    into  place   the   engine    works    under 


full 


compression. 


Sectional  View  of  Mi.xer 


MIXER — The  fuel  as  it  enters  the  cylinder  is  thoroughly  'atomized  or  broken  up.  The 
method  of  operation  is  as  follows:  A  rush  of  air  through  the  large  air  pipe,  induced  by  the  suction 
stroke  of  the  piston,  draws  a  small  quantity  of  gasoline  from  the  nozzle,  which  is  immediately  vaporized. 
The  size  of  the  ojjening  of  the  gasoline  nozzle  inside  the  air  pipe  is  controlled  by  a  needle 
valve.     This  nozzle  is  connected  with  a  supply  cup  to  the  left. 

The  exact  openings  of  the  nozzle  necessary  to  start  and  operate  the  engine  are  marked  on  the 
dial  of  the  needle  valve,  so  that  the  proper  mixture  is  insured. 

The  overflow  from  the  supply  cup  is  cari'ied  back  to  the  fuel  tank,  so  that  any  danger  from 
overflowing   of   gasoline   is    eliminated. 

IGA^ITOR — The  body  of  the  ignitor  is  made  from  cast  iron,  the  electrodes  from  steel,  and 
the  ignition  points  from  a  special  material  that  will  withstand  the  heat  of  the  spark,  as  well  as 
the  effects  of  corrosion  and  oxidation. 

The  stationary  electrode  is  insulated,  and  one  wire  from  the  battery  is  fastened  to  it. 
The  return  circuit  is  made  through  the  movable  electrode  and  the  cylinder  when  the  ])oints 
are  in  contact. 

The  forward   movement  of  the  ignitor  rod  on  the  side  of  the  engine  causes  the  movable 

electrode   to    come    in    contact    with   the   one  which  is  stationary.     This  contact  is  maintained 

for  a  very  short  time,  when  the  rod  allows  the  movable  electrode  to    spring    back  quickly, 

Makc-aiui-iJriMk  Ignitor  breaking  the  circuit  and  producing  a  spark  within  the  cylinder. 

As  will  be  seen  from  the  illustration,  the  parts  within  the  cylinder  are  large,  so  that  they 

cannot  become  incandescent  and  pre-ignite  the  charge. 

The  ignitor  is  directly  in  the  path  of  entering  charges  of  explosive  vapor,  which  aids  in 
keeping  the  ignitor  points  clean  and  cool.  As  the  inlet  valve  opens,  the  mixture  of  gasoline 
and  air  passes  the  ignitor  points  with  considerable  velocity  when  entering  the  cylinder,  cleaning 
or  brushing  off  any  soot  that  may  have  been  deposited  upon  them.  The  ignitor  plug  may  be  easily 
removed  from  the  cylinder  when  it  is  necessary  to  clean  the  ignitor  points.  lenitor,  sh^T^ng  ignition

ENGINE  BASE — This  base  consists  of  two  parts,  the  main  frame  and  sub-base, 
which  are  firmly  bolted  together.  It  is  neat  in  design  and  appearance,  yet  possesses  ample 
strength  and  rigidity  to  hold  all  mechanism  in  perfect  alignment. 

FL.Y  'WHEELS — The  fly  wheels  are  very  securely  attached  to  the  crank  shaft,  yet 
they  may  be  easily  removed  in  case  of  necessity.  The  hubs  are  split,  and  in  addition  to  being 
keyed  to  the  crank  shaft,  are  clamped  by  means  of  bolts  running  through  the  hub. 

GASOLINE  PUMP — I  H  C  gasoline  engines  are  fitted  with  a  plunger  type  gasoline 
pump.  A  very  novel  and  effective  valve  arrangement  is  used.  The  upward  movement  of 
the  plunger  draws  gasoline  through  the  ball  valve  to  the  right,  while  the  other  one  remains  seated 
and  thus  prevents  suction  from  that  direction.  A  downward  movement  of  the  plunger  forces 
the  gasoline  out  to 
the  left  and  up  to  the

mixer  cup.      The  es- 
cape of  gasoline  past 
the    ]5lunger    is    pre- 
vented by  a  packing  gland  of  accepted  construction. 
All   parts  of    the   pump    are    brass    with  the 
exception  of  the  plunger  and  balls,  which  are  steel. 

TANK-COOLED—The  wire  gauze  cool- 
ing tank  is  small,  so  that  a  few  pails  of  water  are 
sufficient  to  keep  the  engine  cylinder  from  over- 
heating. The  plunger  pump,  which  is  part  of  the 
equipment,  keeps  the  water  circulating  through  the 
jacket.  The  pump  is  provided  with  drain  cocks  and  a 
handle  for  lifting  the  valves  off  the  seats.  Opening 
these  as  soon  as  the  engine  is  shut  down  drains  the 
pump.  The  galvanized  gauze  or  screen  may  be 
easily  removed  and  can  be  renewed  at  slight  expense.

SPEED-CHANGING  DEVICE 

The  speed-changing  device  here  illustrated  is  part  of  the  regular  equipment  of  all  horizontal  tank  and  hopper-cooled 
engines.  This  device  consists  of  a  small  segment  and  lever,  and  a 
rod  operating  the  new  detent  arm  upon  an  eccentric  bushing.  By  ro- 
tating this  eccentric  bushing,  the  travel  of  the  governor  is  varied 
sufficiently  to  give  the  desired  change  in  the  speed  of  the  engine. 
This  attachment  gives  a  variation  in  speed  as  follows:

I  H  C  Victor  3-Horsc  Power  Vertical  Gasoline  Engine 


T  H  C  VICTOR  VERTICAL  GASOLINE 

ENGINES 

2    AND    3HORSE    POWER 

The  same  high-grade  construction  embodied  in  larger 
I  H  C  engines  is  found  in  I  H  C  Victor,  vertical,  one-cylinder 
gasoline  engines.  Built  in  2  and  3-horse  power  sizes,  these  engines 
meet  many  farm  and  shop  requirements  for  which  an  engine  of 
small  horse  power  is   desirable. 

These  engines  are  regularly  equipped  for  using  gasoline, 
but  with  slight  alterations  alcohol,  natural  or  artificial  gas  may 
be  used. 

All  engines  are  thoroughly  tested  before  shipping,  and 
every  engine   is  guaranteed  to  deliver  its  rated  horse  power. 

COOLING  ARRANGEMENT— The  cooUng  arrange- 
ment on  Victor  vertical  gasoline  engines  consists  of  a  galvanized 
steel  tank,  cooling  screen,  and  plunger  type  circulating  pump. 

CYLINDER  AND  HEAD— The  cylinder  and  jacket 
walls  are  combined  in  one  casting,  and  ample  space  is  allowed 
for  a  free  circulation  of 
the  cooling  water. 

The  cylinder  head 
is  bolted  to  the  cylinder 
and  can  be  easily  removed 
for  cleaning  or  whenever  it 
is  necessary  to  have  access 
to  all  parts  of  cylinder  and 
water  jacket.

(S^r^: 


YALVES — The  valves  are  of  the  poppet  type,  ground  in  their  seats,  and  held  by  springs. 


PISTON — A  long  trunk  type  piston  is 
used,  which  affords  ample  wearing  surface.  Three 
accurately  fitted,  lap  joint  piston  rings  prevent 
escape  of  compression  past  the  piston. 

The  wrist  pin  is  large,  provitling  a  liberal 
wearing  surface  on  the  connecting  rod.  It  is  in 
the  center  of  the  piston,  conseciucntly  there  is 
no  tendency  to  w'ear  to  a  taper.  A  phosphor 
bronze  bushing  protects  the  connecting  rod  from 
wear.  This  bushing  is  secured  by  a  set -screw  and 
can  easily  be  replaced  in  case  it  becomes  worn.

governor    is    of    a 
When  the   engine 
reaches   a  speed  above   normal,   the    governor 
balls    swing   outward,    causing    the    governor 
sleeve  to  slide  towards  the  fly  wheel.    The  bevel 
portion  of  this  sleeve  moves  the  detent 
lever,    which,    in    turn,    engages    the 
cam  lever,  holding  the  exhaust  valve 
open  until  speed  drops  to  normal. 

VALVE  GEAR— The  valve 
gear  is  a  very  simple  and  effective 
arrangement.  It  operates  in  a  straight 
line  and  without  rccjuiring  any  fine 
adjustments.  The  valve  rod,  because 
of  the  construction  of  the  cam  upon 
which  the  cam  roller  turns,  serves  the 
double  purpose  of  snapping  the  igni- 
tor  and  opening  the  exhaust  valve. 

VALVES— Intake  and 
exhaust  valves  are  both  large  enough 
to  allow  a  ready  ingress  and  egress 
of   the  gases.

MIXEK — A  very  simple  and  effective  mixer,  a  sectional  view  of  which  is  shown  on  this 
page,  is  used  on  all  vertical  engines.  The  flow  of  gasoline  is  induced  from  the  nozzle  by  a 
rush  of  air  through  the  pipe,  the  quantity  being  regulated  by  the  needle  valve.  Coming  in 
contact  with  the  air,  the  gasoline  is  thoroughly  vaporized  and  enters  the  cyhnder  in  a  properly 
proportioned  mixture.  Any  excess  of  gasoline  pumped  into  the  mixer  is  returned  to  the  supply 
tank   by   a  large  overflow  pipe  at  the  bottom  of    ihe  mixer. 

GASOLINE   PUMP — The  plunger  type  gasoline  pump  is  continuous  in  its  action. 

LiDBRICATION — A  splash  oiling  system  keeps  all  main 
working  parts   on  the  I  H  C  engine  well  oiled. 

A  sight  feed  oiler  on  the  side  of  the  cylinder  supplies  oil 
to  the  piston  as  it  passes  the  opening.  The  oil  in  the  chamber 
below  the  crank  shaft  is  held  so  that  at  each  revolution  of 
the  crank  the  oil  is  splashed  throughout  the  interior  by  the  oil 
splasher  which  dips  into  the  oil.  In  this  manner  the  piston, 
nd  main    bearings    are    kept    properly    lubricated. 

Excess  oil  in  the  bottom  of  this  chamber  may  be 
drawn  off  when  necessary  through  the  oil  gauge  at  the 
bottom. 

This  splash  lubrication  proves  very  desirable,  especially 
should  the  operator  neglect  to  turn  on  the  sight  feed  oiler 
when  starting  the  engine.  In  this  case  there  is  oil  enough 
ill  the  chamber  to  insure  thorough  oiling  of  all  parts. 

FLY  WHEELS— The  fly  wheels  have  split  hubs 
and  are  keyed  to  the  crank  shaft. 

SPEED-CHANGING  DEVICE— The  speed- 
changing  device  shown  in  the  accompanying  illustration 
allows  a  variation  of  from  310  R.  P.  :\I.  to  480  R.  P.  M.

I  H  C  VICTOR  TWO-CYLINDER  VERTICAL  GASOLINE  ENGINE 

25    AND    35-HORSE   POWER 


This  engine  is  well  adapted  for  supplying  power  for 
municipal  and  private  electric-lighting  plants  and  water- 
works, for  factories  and  cotton  gins— in  fact,  for  all  pur- 
poses where  close  regulation  of  speed  is  essential.  The 
variation  in  speed  from  no  load  to  full  load  is  less  than 
2  per  cent,  so  that  the  engine  can  be  connected  direct 
to  generators.  This  regulation  is  as  close  as  that  of  a 
high-class  steam  engine. 

The  engine  can  be  equipped  for  the  use  of  either 
city,  natural,  or  producer  gas,  or  gasoline  as  fuel.  It  is 
necessary  only  to  change  the  pistons  and  the  mixing 
valves.  When  operated  on  gasoline  or  city  gas,  it  will 
produce  considerable  power  in  excess  of  its  rating. 

The  design  conforms  in  many  instances  to  standard 
construction  for  vertical,  single-acting,  four-stroke-cycle 
engines,  having  an  enclosed  crank  case,  splash  lubrication . 
and  valves  in  the  cylinder  heads  operated  by  push  rods 
and  rockers.  A  fly-ball  governor  controls  the  quantity 
and  quality  of  mixture  admitted  for  varying  loads.  In 
working  out  the  details,  absolute  interchangeability  of 
parts  has  been  the  guiding  principle,  and  there  are  no 
"rights  and  lefts"  in  its  construction.  In  this  respect 
the  I  H  C  two-cylinder  engine  differs  from  nearly  all 
other  similar  engines.  On  the  I  H  C  any  piece  used 
for  any  given  purpose  on  one  cylinder  may  be  used 
equally  well  on  the  other,  and  the  positions  of  the 
cylinders  themselves  may  be  transposed  at  will. 

A  complete  description  of  this  engine,  together  with 
many  illustrations,  will  be  found  in  a  special  two-cylinder 
engine  catalogue,  a  copy  of  which  will  be  sent  upon  request.

I  H   C  FAMOUS  HORIZONTAI.   GASOLINE  ENGINE   ON   SKIDS 

4.  6,  AND  8-HORSE  POWER 

On  the  opposite  page  is  shown  the  Famous  horizontal  engine  mounted  on  skids.  When  mounted  in  this  manner,  a 
semi-portable  outfit  is  formed. 

MOUNTING — This  engine  is  mounted  on  substantial  wooden  skids  which  also  carry  cooUng  tank,  gasoline  tank, 
and  battery  box. 

ENGINE  — The  engine  proper  is  essentially  the  same  as  the  regular  I  H  C  Victor  gasohne  engine,  except  that  the 
gasoline  tank  is  placed  in  the  base  of  the  engine.  Electric  ignition  is  used,  the  current  for  which  is  supplied  by  batteries 
regularly  furnished.     A  speed-changing  device  is  part  of  the  regular  equipment. 

SPECIAL.  ACCESSORIES — At  a  slight  additional  cost  a  magneto  can  be  supplied  to  take  the  place  of 
the  batteries.  On  special  order  engines  with  a  hot  tube  to  take  the  place  of  the  electric  ignition  can  be  supplied.  This 
includes  a  small  gasoline  tank  and  burner.  This  attachment  must  be  put  on  at  the  works,  inasmuch  as  it  is  necessary 
to  bore  the  cylinder  in  order  to  attach  the  tube. 

These  skidded  outfits  are  furnished  in  4,  6,  and  8-horse  power  sizes.

I  H  C  PORTABLE  GASOLINE  ENGINE 

4.  6.  8.  10,  12,  15,  20,  AND  25-HORSE  POWER 

These  portable  engines  have  a  wide  range  of  adaptabihty.  They 
meet  the  demand  of  farmers  and  contractors  who  desire  reliable  power  which 
can  be  easily  transferred  from  place  to  place.  They  furnish  the  most  efficient 
and  economical  power  for  operating  threshers,  buskers  and  shredders,  shellers, 
silage  cutters,  pumps,  saws,  and  other  farm  machines.  Contractors  find 
them  excellent  outfits  for  well  drilling,  stone  crushing,  pumping  water  out 
of  sewers  and  low  lands,  for  operating  temporary  electric  light  plants,  and 
other  work  requiring  an  engine  which  can  be  readily  moved  from  one  place 
to  another  as   desired. 

TRUCKS — These  engines  are  mounted  on  substantial  trucks  which 
are  light,  but  at  the  same  time  strong  and  rigid  enough  to  stand  up  under 
the  jarring  and  jolting  resulting  from  being  hauled  over  rough  roads.  The 
frame  upon  which  the  engine  rests  will  support  it  under  all  conditions.  The 
axles  are  solid  bars  of  steel  turned  to  size  at  the  ends  to  form  bearings  for 
the  wheels.  The  wheels  are  steel  with  the  exception  of  the  hubs  which  are 
high-grade  castings. 

ENGINE — The  engine  proper  is  essentially  the  same  as  the  \'ictor 

horizontal   engine,   except  that  it  is   mounted   without  sub-base  on   trucks 
which    make   it    very    convenient    for  trans- 
porting. 

COOLING— Cooling  arrangement 
consists  of  cooling  tower  and  circulating 
jjump   mounted   on    the   truck   with   engine. 

IGNITION— Electric  ignition  is 
used.  Batteries  and  auto  sparker  are  regu- 
larly furnished. 


FRICTON  CLUTCH  PULLEY— A  friction  clutch  pulley  bolted  to  the  sjxjkes 
of  the  fly  wheel  is  used  on  this  engine.  The  construction  of  this  pulley  makes  it  possible  to 
start  gradually  without  jerking  or  jarring  the  machine  which  is  being  driven. 

SPECIAL  ACCESSORIES— Magneto  and  engines  with  hot  tube  may  be  had 
on  special  order  at  a  small  additional  cost.

I  H  C  VICTOR  HOPPER-COOLED  ENGINES 

HORIZONTAL  STATIONARY— 4,  6.  AND    8IIORSE  POWER 

I  H  C  Mctor  hopper-cooled  engines  are  in 
many  essentials  similar  to  the  I  H  C  Victor  horizontal 
tank-cooled  engines.  However,  a  change  in  the 
cooling  arrangement  greatly  simplifies  them. 

COOJLING — Instead  of  being  equipped 
with  a  cooling  tower,  circulating  pump,  and  pipe, 
the  water  jacket  of  the  cylinder  is  extended  upwards 
to  form  an  open  jacket  or  hopper.  This  hopper 
holds  enough  water  to  keep  the  engine  thoroughly 
cooled  for  several  hovu's.  As  the  water  evaporates 
very  slowly,  it  is  an  easy  matter  to  keep  the  hopper 
filled.  This  cooling  arrangement  docs  away  with 
the  danger  of  the  cylinder  being  cracked  by  freezing, 
as  the  hopper  opening  allows  the  water  to  expand. 
However,  if  the  engine  is  left  exposed  to  freezing 
weather  for  a  considerable  length  of  time,  it  is 
advisable  to  drain  the  hopper. 

SPECIAL  ACCESSORIES— At  asmall 
additional  cost,  a  magneto,  auto  sparker,  and  fric- 
I  H  C  Victor,  Stationary.  Hoppcr-Cooled.  Gasoline  Eneine  tion   clutch     pulley  .can   be  supplied.

FAMOUS  ONE-HORSE  POA\^ER  HOPPER-COOLED  ENGINE 


Famous  1-Horsc  Power  Hopper-Cooled 
Engine  Mounted  on  Special  Hand  Truck 


ENGINE — This  engine  has  the  same  main  frame, 
fly  wheels,  crank  shaft,  governor,  gears,  detent,  muffler, 
mixer,  gasoline  tank,  and  skids,  as  are  used  on  the  1-horse 
power  Tom  Thumb  engine.  However,  it  has  make-and- 
break  ignition,  and  the  inlet  valve  is  so  arranged  that  the 
incoming  mixture  passes  over  the  ignitor  points  and  keeps 
them  clean  and  cool.  The  timing  of  the  ignitor  can  be 
adjusted  while  the  engine  is  running,  which  facilitates  the 
starting  of  the  engine.  This  engine  has  a  new  hopper-jacketed 
cylinder  with  water-cooled  head.  If  the  engine  is  running 
under  full  load,  the  hopper  full  of  water  will  evaporate  in 
about  one  hour. 

MOUNTING— The  engine  is  regularly  mounted 
on  a  platform,  but  it  can  be  mounted  on  special  order  on  a 
semi-portable  truck,  which  includes  the  wheels  and  a  handle 
for  drawing  the  outfit.

TOM  THUMB  FAMOUS  AIR-COOIiED   GASOLINE   ENGINE 

l-HORSE    POWER 

This  air-cooled  engine  is  an  excellent  power  for 
operating  any  farm  or  shop  machines  to  which  a  1-horse 
power  engine  is  adaptable. 

MOUNTING— The  engine,  gasoline  tank,  and 
battery  box  are  mounted  on  a  solid  wooden  sub-base, 
which  makes  it  very  convenient  for  moving  from  place  to 
place.  On  special  order,  at  a  slight  additional  cost,  it  can 
be  mounted  on  a  small  truck  which  includes  wheels 
and  a  handle  for  drawing  the  outfit. 

ENGINE— This   engine   is   provided   with   a  hit- 
and-miss  type  of  governor,   very  sensitive  in  its   action. 
No  gasohne  pump  is  used  on  this  engine;  but,  instead,_  a 
simple   mixer  placed  over  the  gasoline  tank.     A  partial 
vacuum  is  produced  in  the  pipe  by  the  suction  stroke  of 
the  piston  and  a  flow  of  gasoline  is  induced  into  the  mixer. 
This  gasoline,  the  quantity  of  which  is  regulated  by  the 
needle  valve,  reaches  the  cylinder  in  a  properly  propor- 
tioned mixture.    The  valve  mechanism  is  very  simple.     Both  valves  may  be  removed  by  unscrewing  one  bolt  in  the  cylinder  head. 
IGNITION— Jump  spark  ignition  is  used,  for  which  five  dry  cell  batteries  and  a  spark   plug    are    regularly    fur- 
nished.    The  spark  is  very  convenient  and  accessible,  being  placed  on  the  top  of  the  cylmder. 

PULLEYS— A  plain  pulley,  6  inches  in  diameter,  with  a  2M-inch  face,  is  regularly  furnished.  A  complete  pulley 
arrangement  for  driving  the  cream"  separator,  consisting  of  a  reducing  gear  and  a  4-inch  pulley  capable  of  transmitting 
i^-horse  power,  is  regularly  furnished. 

SPECIAL  ACCESSORIES— A  special  6-inch  pulley  with  a  5-inch  face  can  be  used  for  operating  the  standing 
and  walking  beam  pumping  jacks,  and  can  be  supplied  on  special  order.     A  4-inch  pulley  may  also  be  had  on  special  order.

FAMOUS  VERTICAI^  AIR-COOLED  GASOLINE  ENGINES 

2  AND  3-HORSE  POWER 

These  vertical,  air-cooled   engines  are   very   satisfactory   for  many  small  jobs  about  the  farm  and  shop.     Their  light 
weight  makes  it  an  easy  matter  to  move  them  from  place  to  place. 

MOUNTING — The  engine,  with  gasoline  tank  and  batterv  box,  is  mounted  on  substantial  wooden  skids. 


ENGINE — Equipped  with  fly  wheel  type  of  governor.     Sight  feed  oilers  are  used  on  main  bearings  and  piston.     A 
splash  system  lubricates  the  crank  pin  bearings.     The  crank  case,  while  not  entirely  closed,  is  so  constructed  that  no  oil  can 

be  thrown  out.  The  gasoline  tank  is  located  in  the  sub-base  and  fuel 
is  pumped  into  the  mixer  by  a  plunger  type  pump.  Jump  spark 
ignition  is  used,  current  for  which  is  supplied  by  five  dry  cells  and  a 
spark  coil. 

COOLING — A  small  fan  attached  on  the  pulley  side  and 
operated  by  a  round  bolt  from  the  fly  wheel  keeps  the  cylinder  cool 
and  at  the  proper  temperature.  This  arrangement  does  away  with 
the  heavy  cooling  tank,  pump,  and  piping.  There  is  no  danger 
of  the  cylinder  becoming  overheated,  as  this  cooling  arrangement  is 
so  effective  that  the  engine  can  develop  its  full  rated  horse  power 
all  day. 

PULLEYS — A  .5  x  5-inch  pulley  is  furnished  with  the 
2-horsc  power  engine,  and  a  5-inch  pulley  with  a  5i2-iiif'h  surface  is 
furnished  with  the  3-horse  power  engines. 

SPECIAL  ACCESSORIES— On  special  order,  any  of 
the  pulleys  listed  on  page  15,  for  2  and  3-horse  power  \'ictor  engines,

I  H  C  30-Horse  Power  Gasoline  Tractor 


and 


I  H  C  gasoline  tractors,  which  are 
made  in  several  styles  and  sizes,  are  proving 
a  profitable  investment  to  those  farmers  who, 
keeping  pace  with  20th  century  advancement, 
are  replacing  the  expensive  and  inefficient 
animal  power  by  the  more  modern,  more 
efficient,  cheaper,  mechanical  power.  The 
horse,  the  ox,  and  the  plow,  has  each  seen 
its  day,  and  the  man  behind  the  plow  is 
entering   a   new   era   of   progress. 

I  H  C  gasoline  tractors  have  proved 
to  be  the  most  economical  and  satisfactory 
for  plowing,  hauling  loads,  and  also  for 
delivering  power  from  the  belt  to  operate 
threshers,  shellers,  shredders,  and  many 
other  large  machines.  The  reasons  for  this 
superiority  are  not  hard  to  find.  The  engine 
— the  power  plant — is  the  well  known  I  H  C 
engine  of  which  thousands  are  in  use  through- 
the  power    transmission,   though   simpler,   is  similar  to  the    method 


out   the   country.     The  truck  is  very  substantial, 
used  on  successful  steam  tractors. 

This  correct  design  will  explain  why  in  every  contest  I  H  C  tractors  come  out  winners.  At  the  Winnipeg  farm  motor 
contest  in  July,  1910,  I  H  C  tractors  delivered  approximately  75  per  cent  of  the  engine's  rated  horse  power  at  the  draw 
bar— at  the  point  where  it  takes  the  place  of  horses.  This  per  cent  of  the  engine's  power  delivered  at  the  draw  bar  was  larger 
than  that  delivered  by  any  other  gasoline  tractor.  Again  in  the  plowing  contest,  I  H  C  tractors  plowed  an  acre  of  ground  on 
less  fuel  than  was  required  l)y  any  other  gasoline  tractor  entered.  These  two  points,  maximum  power  at  the  draw  bar,  and 
minimum  fuel  consumption,  are  the  two  vitally  important  facts  which  determine  the  efficiency  and  desirability  of  the  tractor. 

I  H  C  tractors  are  made  in  12,  15,  20,  25,  and  45-horse  power  sizes,  and  in  several  styles. 

Catalogues  describing  the  different  styles  can  be  had  upon  application  to  the  local  agent,  general  agent,  or  the  general 
offices  in  Chicago.

FAMOUS    PUMPING    ENGINE 

2-IIORSE    POWER 

This  is  a  desirable  pumping  outfit  because,  besides  pumping,  it  may  be  used  for  otlier  purposes  to  which  an  engine  of 
this  horse  power  is  adapted. 

By  detaching  tlie  walking  beam  from  the  pump,  and  belting  from  the  pulley  on  the  fly  wheel  to  the  machine,  the 
engine  is  ready  to  operate  many  of  the  small  machines  on  the  farm. 

It  may  be  easily  transported  from  place  to  place  inasmuch  as  the  entire  outfit  is  mounted  on  skids. 

Tliis  outfit  is  a  direct  connected  or  walking  beam  outfit,  designed  especially  for  wells  or  reservoirs. 

ENGINE— The  engine  is  hke  the  I  H  C  Victor  vertical 
engine  with  the  exception  of  a  sub-base  which,  in  this  case,  extends 
out  and  forms  a  support  for  the  gears  and  face  plate,  as  well  as  a 
receptacle   for  the   gasoline   tank. 

GEARS — The  gears  are  well  constructed  and  are  securclj' 
held  in  position,  so  that  there  is  no  possibiHty  of  changing  their  posi- 
tion and  thus  throwing  the  gear  teeth  out  of  mesh. 

MOUNTING— The  outfit  is  very  substantially  mounted 
on  wooden  skids,  which  carry  the  engine,  cooling  tank,  gears,  and 
walking  beam  standard.  Three  braces  hold  the  walking  beam 
standard  securely  in  position,  so  that  the  entire  outfit  operates  at  all 
times  with  minimum  friction.

Belted  Pumping  Jacks  are  made  in  three  sizes;  regular,  hcavj',  and  deep  well  jacks. 

REGULAR  BELTED  JACK — This  jack  is  recommended  for  pumping  against  a  20d-foot  head  with  a  43^-inch 
cyhnder  or  its  equivalent — a  SOO-foot  head  with  a  23^-inch  cylinder. 

With  a  smaller  head  the  cylinder  can  be  correspondingly  increased.  In  pumping  against  a  greater  head  than  200  feet 
the  number  of  strokes  per  minute  should  be  reduced  from  40  to  about  20. 

The  diameter  of  the  pulley  is  14  inches;  face,  3  inches;  speed  185  revolutions  per  minute.     The  ratio  of  gears  is  1  to  4.66. 

HEAVY  BELTED  JACK— The  heavy  belted  pumping  jack  is  an  excellent 
jack  for  use  in  lifting  water  in  wells  not  deeper  than  400  feet.  It  is  considerably 
heavier  than  the  regular  jack  and  has  unusual  strength  and  durabilit3^  Stockmen  and 
farmers  who  have  deep  wells  find  this  heavy  jack  very  desirable.  It  can  also  be  used 
for  lifting  water  for  small  irrigation  systems,  gardens,  etc. 

The  strokes  of  this  jack  arc  12,  14,  15,  18,  and  20  inches,  and  the  ratio  of  the  gears 
is  5  to  1.  The  pulley  is  24  inches  in  diameter  with  a  4i2-inch  face;  speed,  160  revolutions 
for  32  strokes  of  the  pump  per  minute.  This  will  vary,  of  course,  to  suit  diiferent  condi- 
tions.    The  jack  is  intended  to  be  used  with  engines  of  from  2  to  6-horse  power,  inclusive. 

DEEP  AVELL  BELTED  JACK— The  deep  well  pumping  jack  is  similar 
to  the  heavy  belted  jack  described   above,   except  that  it  is  a  much  stronger  jack  and 

is  intended  to  be  used  with  engines 
up  to  and  including  12-horse  power. 
The  strokes  of  this  jack  are  12,  18, 
24,  and  28  inches,  and  the  ratio  of 
the  gears  is  6  to  1.  The  pulley 
is  24  inches  in  diameter  with  a  6-inch 
face,  and  the  speed  should  be  180 
revolutions  for  30  strokes  of  the 
pump  per  minute. 

This  jack  is  recommended  for 
use  in  lifting  water  in  wells  as  deep 
as  1,000  feet,  using  a  4-inch  cylinder.

W^ALKING   BEAM   PUMPING  JACKS 


W^ALKING  BEAM  JACK  NO.  1-  This  jack 
should  not  be  used  for  pumping  against  a  greater  head  than 
50  feet  with  a  33  2-iiich  cyhnder,  or  its  equivalent — a  100-foot 
head  with  a  2}4-inch  cylinder.  The  engine  by  which  it  is 
driven  may  be  used  for  purposes  other  than  pumping.  The 
jack  is  well  constructed  from  the  best 
grade  of  steel  and  iron,  and  with  pi'oper 
care  should  last  a  lifetime.  The  strokes 
of  this  jack  are  40  per  minute,  and  the 
ratio  of  gears  is  1  to  7.1.  The  diameter 
of  the  pulley  is  13  J4  inches  with  a 
2i'4-inch  face,  and  its  speed  is  285  revo- 
lutions per  minute. 


AVALKING  BEAM  JACK  NO.  2— This  walk- 
ing beam  pumping  jack  is  a  heavier  jack  than  the  No.  1,  and 
can  be  used  to  lift  water  in  wells  not  deeper  than  200  feet. 
The  safe  working  load  on  the  end   of   the  walking   beam  is 

1,200  lbs.,  which  is  equiva- 
lent to  pumping  a  4i/2-inch 
cylinder  against  a  200-foot 
head,  or  a  3-inch  cylinder 
against  a  500-foot  head.  With 
a  smaller  cylinder,  however, 
the  head  can  be  correspond- 
ingly increased,  but  it  is  not 
recommended  to  use  this 
jack  for  wells  deeper  than 
200  feet,  on  account  of  the 
number  of  strokes  per  min- 
ute, which  should  be  reduced 
to  about  20  for  deep  wells  to 
avoid  buckling  of  the  sucker 
rod. 

The  strokes  per  minute 
are  32  to  40,  and  the  ratio  of 
gears  is  1  to  4.66.  The  diam- 
eter of  the  pulley 
is  14  inches  with  a 
3-inch  face,  and 
its  speed  is  185 
revolutions  per 
minute.  The 
lengths  of  stroke 
are  5,  7,  and  10 
inches.

STANDARD 
PUMPING  JACKS 

These  jacks  are  made  in  two  sizes  and  are  intended  to 
attach  directly  to  the  standard  of  the  pump.  Power  connec- 
tion is  made  by  belt  from  the  engine. 

STANDARD  JACK  NO.  1— The  speed  of  the 
puUe}'  of  the  Standard  Jack  is 
250  revolutions  per  minute,  the 
diameter  1434  inches,  and  face 
2J-2  inches.  The  ratio  of  the 
gears  is  1  to  5.7,  making  40 
strokes    per    minute. 

It  is  not  intended  that 
this  jack  shall  pump  against 
a  greater  head  than  50  feet 
with  a  SJo-inch  cylinder,  or 
the  equivalent — a  100-foot  head 
with  a  2i4'-inch  cylinder. 

STANDARD  JACK 

NO.  2— The  Standard  Jack 
Xo.  2,  which  is  the  heavier  of 
the  two,  is  suitable  for  wells 
150  to  200  feet  deep.  Forty 
strokes  per  minute  at  the  nor- 
mal speed  of  the  pulley — 220  R. 
P.  M. — is  the  correct  speed  of  the 
jack.  The  ratio  of  gears  is  1  to 
5.7,  and  the  diameter  of  the 
pulley  is  14 14  inches,  with  a 
2i2-inch  face.  This  jack  will 
transmit  2-horse  power. 


POWDER  REQUIRED  TO  RAISE 
WATER 

Based  on  a  pump  efficiency  of  50  per  cent 

To  find  the  horse  power  necessary  to  elevate  water  to 
a  given  height,  see  the  table  below,  or  multiply  the  number 
of  gallons  per  minute  by  total  number  of  feet  water  is  raised 
(that  is,  from  surface  of  the  water  to  the  highest  point  to 
which  the  water  is  raised),  and  divide  by  4,000  and  you 
have  the  horse  power.  This  rule,  however,  will  not  apply 
to  all  pumps,  from  the  fact  that  some  pumps  have  more 
friction  than  others.  A  well  300  feet  deep,  as  a  rule,  wastes 
about  50  per  cent  in  friction  in  the  pump.  Wells  deeper  than 
300  feet  waste  from  60  to  75  per  cent  in  friction.  Of  course, 
this  depends  a  great  deal  on  the  size  of  pump,  cylinders, 
etc.,  used.  The  table  below  is  figured  on  a  basis  of  50  per 
cent  waste  in  friction.

BUILDEKS'  HOIST  AND  LOG-HOISTING  ENGINE 

8-HORSE  POWER 

This  hoisting  outfit  is  very  desirable  for  build- 
ing and  construction  work,  for  excavating, 
operating  derricks,  trestle  and  bridge  construction 
work,  loading  and  unloading  at  docks  and  ware- 
houses, handling  lumber,  laying  cable,  handling  ice 
and  for  telephone  construction  work. 

The  outfit  consists  of  a  regular  8-horse  power 
Famous  horizontal  engine,  with  a  special  crank 
shaft,  mounted  on  a  special  sub-base,  which  also 
carries  a  drum  and  reverse  gear,  friction  clutch, 
speed-changing  device,  and  controlling  levers.  The 
drum  shaft  carries  a  winch.  The  maximum  speed  of 
the  engine,  with  speed-controlling  device  in,  is  310 
revolutions  per  minute;  the  minimum  speed,  with  the 
device  released,  is  200  revohitions  per  minute.  The 
rated  load  of  1,300  pounds,  with  single  cable,  can  be 
lifted  175  feet  per  minute.  With  single  cable  a 
maximum  load  of  1,584  pounds  can  be  lifted.  The 
friction  clutch  and  brake  have  ample  holding  power, 
handling  the  maximum  load  without  slipping.    The 

hoisting  device  is  easily  handled,  both  in  lifting  and  lowering. 

The  reverse  gear  is  used  in  lowering  the  cable.     By   throwing  the 

lever  forward,   this   gear  is   put   into   action,  the  drum  reversed,  and  the 

cable  lowered  to  the  ground  for  hoisting  again. 

The  winch  has  been  put  on  the  end  of  the  drum  shaft  to  provide  a 

means  for  pulling  cars.     A  twist  or  two  of  the  rope  around  this  winch 

will  enable  the  cars  to  be  drawn  easily  and  quickly.     This  does  away  with

Gas  Attachment  on  I  H  C  Victor 
Vertical  Engine 

to  be  used  in  a    \'ictor    eneine 


I  H  C  Victor  and 
Famous  engines  can  be  sup- 
plied with  a  gas  attachment, 
which  is  easily  attached  in 
place  of  the  gasoline  mixer. 
With  this  attachment  arti- 
ficial gas  may  be  used  as  fuel 
with  excellent  results.  The 
illustrations  herewith  show 
the  gas  attachment  on  both 
the  vertical  and  horizontal 
engines. 

When  artificial  gas  is 
it  is  necessary  to  change 
the  entire  cylinder  and  piston,  for  the  reason  that  artificial 
gas  has  a  less  number  of  heat  units  than  either  natural  gas 
or  gasoline  vapor.  This  makes  greater  compression  neces- 
sary to  secure  the  same  efficiency  which,  in  turn,  re- 
quires a  new  cylin- 
der and  piston. 
Therefore,  when 
artificial  gas  is  to 
be  used  it  should  be 
so  stated  when  or- 
dering the  engine, 
so  that  an  engine 
especially  adapted 
for  this  fuel  can 
be    shipped.

COMBINATION  GAS  AND 
GASOLINE  ATTACHMENT 

A   combination  gas  and  gaso- 
line   attachment     is     also    furnished 
on  special  order  for  I  H  C  Victor  and 
Famous   engines.       This   attachment 
has  been  designed   especially  for  use 
in    localities    where     natural   gas    is 
available  part   of  the  time.     It  is  so 
designed  that  natural  gas  alone  may 
be  used  as  a  fuel  until  pressure  is  so 
low    that    artificial    vapor     must   be 
supplied,     which     may     be     accom- 
plished by  slightly  opening  the  needle 
valve  and  allowing  gasoline  vapor  to 
enter  with  the  natural  gas  in  order  to 
produce  an  explosive  mixture  in  the 
cylinder  rich  enough  to  explode;  or  the  gas  may  be  cut  off 
entirely  and  the  engine  run  on  gasoline.     No  change  of  piston 
can    be    made    with    this   attachment, 
with    artificial   gas 
there  is  a  slight  de- 
crease in  the  power 
of    the  engine,  ac- 
cording   to    the 
quality  of  the  gas. 
The    change    from 
one  fuel  to  the  other 
may   be  made    in- 
stantly and  without

ALCOHOL  ATTACHMENTS  FOR  I  H  C  ENGINES 


Alcohol  attachments  may  be  furnished  for 
both  vertical  and  horizontal  I  H  C  engines.  This 
attachment  consists  of  a  new  cylinder  head  com- 
plete, an  alcohol  mixer,  and  a  strainer.  This  new 
cylinder  head  must  be  furnished  complete  in  order 
to  provide  greater  compression  in  the  cylinder, 
for  it  is  possible  to  obtain  the  rated  horse  power 
of  the  engine  economically  when  using  alcohol, 
only  by  increasing  the  compression.  This  alcohol 
attachment  is  furnished  as  an  extra  only  on 
special  order. 

EXTENDED   CRANK   SHAFTS 

In  making  direct  connections  with  dynamos 
and  various  machines,  extended  crank  shafts  are 
sometimes  necessary.  Below  will  be  found  a  list 
of  the  extended  crank  shafts  which  can  be  fur- 
nished for  I  H  C  engines.  These  crank  shafts  are 
listed  as  special  features  and  should  be  ordered 
separately.  They  can  be  put  on  the  engines  before  leaving  the  works,  or  they  may  be  added  to  the 
engines  in  the  field.  In  the  table  below  the  length  of  extension  listed  can  be  furnished  on  the  pulley 
side  of  the  shaft,  on  the  governor  side  of  the  shaft,  or  on  both  sides  of  the  shaft.  When  ordering  it 
should  be  specified  on  which  side  the  extension  is  desired.

OPERATING  I  H  C  GASOLINE  ENGINES  W^ITH  KEROSENE 

In  cases  where  a  Victor  or  Famous  gasoline 
engine  is  working  under  a  constant  load  of  one-half 
its  rated  horse  power  or  more,  it  will  be  found  eco- 
nomical to  operate  the  engine  with  a  mixture  of 
kerosene  and  gasoline.  This  should  be  mixed  in 
the  proportion  of  one  part  of  gasoline  to  four  or 
five  parts  of  kerosene.  Some  have  found  that  by 
using  kerosene  it  is  possible  to  reduce  the  cost  of 
operating  20  to  33J  per  cent.  With  an  engine  of 
large  horse  power,  under  continuous  operation, 
this  reduction  in  fuel  bills  will  mean  a  considerable 
saving  in  the  course  of  a  year. 

SUPPLY  TANKS— To  use  a  kerosene 
mixture  properly,  it  is  necessary  to  have  two 
tanks — one  for  gasoline  alone,  and  another  for  the 
mixture  of  gasohne  and  kerosene,  in  proportions 
of  1  to  4  or  5.  These  tanks  are  both  con- 
nected to  the  engine  pump,  as  shown  in  the  illus- 
tration, and  are  shut  off  by  means  of  a  three- 
way  cock.  Two  overflow  pipes  from  the  feed  cup, 
also  operated  by  a  three-way  cock,  carry  the  over- 
flow of  kerosene  mixture  and  of  gasoline  back  to 
the  supply  tanks.  No  change  in  the  engine  itself 
is  necessary.

STARTING  THE  ENGINE— To  start  the  engine,  throw  the  three-way  cock  so  that  the  supply  of  gasoline  is 
turned  on,  and  the  supply  of  kerosene  mixture  shut  off.  This  will  permit  a  supply  of  gasoline  to  be  pumped  into  the  feed 
cup.  Start  the  engine  on  the  gasoline  as  ordinarily,  and  let  it  run  for  about  one-half  hour,  so  that  the  engine  is  well  warmed 
up,  then  shut  off  the  gasoline  and  turn  on  the  kerosene  mixture. 


STOPPING  THE  ENGINE — At  the  end  of  the  run,  shut  off  the  kerosene  mixture,  turn  on  the  gasoline,  and 
allow  the  engine  to  run  for  five  or  ten  minutes  before  closing  down.  In  this  way  all  the  kerosene  mixture  is  cleaned  out  of 
the  feed  cup  and  pipes,  so  that  when  the  engine  is  finally  stopped  it  contains  nothing  but  gasoline.  The  engine  is  thus 
made  ready  to  start  up  the  next  time  without  delay.

KEROSENE  ATTACHMENT  FOR  I  H  C  HORIZONTAL  ENGINES 


This  kerosene  attachment  is  designed  for  use  on  the  6-horse  power  I  H  C    Victor  or   Famous  horizontal  engine.     The 
illustration  shows  the  engine  equipped  for  using  kerosene  instead  of  gasoline  as  fuel. 

The  engine  is  hke  the  regular  Victor,  6-horse  power,  gasoline  engine,  except  that  it  has,  instead  of  the  regular  gasohne 
mixer,  an  attachment  for  using  kerosene  as  fuel. 

The  attachment  consists  of  a  mixer,  and  a  heater  which  lies  under  the  cylinder  head,  into  which,  by  means  of  a  valve, 
any  proportion  of  the  hot  exhaust  gases  may  be  turned.  By  means  of  a  similar  valve  on  the  mixer  side,  any  amount  of  fresh 
air  may  be  drawn  through  the  heater,  thus  regulating 
the  temperature  of  the  incoming  charge.  A  small 
amount  of  exhaust  gas  is  admitted  to  the  mixer 
adjacent  to  the  needle  valve  and  becomes  a  part  of 
the  explosive  mixture.  The  purpose  of  readmit- 
ting this  exhaust  is  to  overcome  premature  explo- 
sions. It  is  also  an  aid  in  running  the  engine 
under  no  load,  as  it  assists  in  vaporizing  the  kerosene. 
Two  fuel  tanks  and  the  necessary    piping    are    used. 

The  engine  is  started  in  the  usual  manner, 
using  gasoline  as  a  fuel,  and  as  soon  as  the  engine 
has  warmed  up  sufficiently  the  fuel  is  changed  from 
gasoline  to  kerosene  by  throwing  the  lever  of  a  three- 
way  cock.  The  length  of  time  that  the  engine 
should  run  on  gasoline  depends  on  the  temperature 
of  the  surrounding  air.  In  an  ordinary  room  from 
3  to  5  minutes  are  required.  It  is  unnecessary  to 
use  the  heater  unless  the  tem]3crature  is  freezing  or 
when  working  under  light  loads. 

The  fuel  consumption  is  the  same  as  gaso- 
line consumption,  and  depends  upon  the  setting  of 
the  fuel  valve.  The  engine  will  run  under  no  load, 
using  kerosene,  but  if  it  is  required  to  run  this  way 
for  more  than  an  hour  or  so  at  a  time  it  would  be 
cheaper  to  use  gasoline,  which  can  bodone  by  a  simple 
turn  of  the  three-way  cock. 

This  kerosene  attachment  may  be  attached 
to  the  regular  I  H  C  \'ictor  or  Famous,  6-horse 
power,   horizontal  engine.

AUTO    SPARKER 


Webster  Masncfti   with   all   Parts 

The  Webster  magneto  can  be  furnished 
on  special  order  for  all  I  H  C  gas,  gasohne, 
kerosene,  or  alcohol  engines,  with  make-and- 
break  ignition,  stationary,  portable,  and 
traction,  from  2-horse  power  up,  with  the 
exception  of  the  2-cylinder  vertical  engines 
and  the  2i-horse  power  hopper-cooled  engines. 
Batteries  are  not  necessary  when  a  magneto 
is  used,  as  the  magneto  generates  a  fat,  hot 
spark.  The  engines  can  be  equipped  with 
magnetos  before  being  shipped,  or  the 
magnetos  may  be  put  on  engines  in  the  field. 

In  ordering,  state  the  size  of  engine  on 
which  the  magneto  is  to  be  used,  as  there 
are  several  sizes  of  ignitor  plugs.  Take  out 
the  old  ignitor  plug,  and  put  on  the  one  sent 
with  the  magneto,  as  explained  by  the  instruc- 
tions sent. 


wizard  Magneto 

When  specially  ordered,  the 
Wizard  magneto  can  be  fur- 
nished for  all  engines  witli 
make-and-break  ignition.  This 
magneto  is  comparatively  cheap, 
and  may  be  easily  placed  on  the 
engine.  It  is  driven  by  friction 
contact  with  tlie  fly  wheel  of 
the  engine.  Through  its  use, 
it  is  possible  to  start  the  engine 
without  the  aid  of  batteries 
inasmuch  as  the  current  is 
furnished  by  means  of  per- 
manent magnets. 


The  Motsingcr  Auto  Sparker 

The  i\Iotsinger  auto  sparker  is  an  auto- 
matically governed  dynamo.  It  differs 
from  a  magneto  in  that  it  does  not  depend 
on  permanent  magnets,  but  is  built  on  the 
plan  of  large  lighting  dynamos,  and  its 
magnets  are  kept  constantly  magnetized 
by  the  current  from  the  machine  itself. 

The  auto  sparker  can  be  attached 
to  any  engine,  but  those  using  a  jump- 
spark  plug  must  use  a  special  coil  designed 
by  the  Motsinger  Company. 

By  using  the  auto  sparker  the  engine  is 
started  on  batteries,  after  which  the  cur- 
rent is  turned  off  and  the  spark  supplied 
by  the  auto  sparker.  This  auto  sparker 
is  furnished  regularly  on  all  portable 
and  traction  engines.  It  can  be  supplied 
on  special  order  for  other  engines.

RULES  FOR  DETERMINING  THE  SPEED  OF  PULEEYS 

1.  To  find  the  niimlier  of  revolutions  of  the  driven  shaft  when  the  diameter  of  the  driving  pullej'  and  its  speed 
are  given,  multiply  the  diameter  of  the  driving  pulley  by  its  number  of  revolutions  per  minute,  and  divide  the  product  by 
the  diameter  of  the  driven  pulley;  the  quotient  will  be  the  speed  of  the  driven  pulley  expressed  in  revolutions  per  minute. 

Example:  Driving  pulley  is  24  inches  in  diameter  and  makes  125  revolutions  per  minute.  At  what  rate  would 
a  pulley  8  inches  in  diameter  be  driven? 

24  X  125 

=  375  revolutions  per  minute.

2.  To  find  the  diameter  of  the  driven  pulley  when  the  diameter  and  number  of  revolutions  of  the  driving  pulley 
are  given,  multiply  the  diameter  of  the  driving  pulley  by  the  number  of  its  revolutions,  and  divide  the  product  by  the  num- 
ber of  revolutions  the  driven  pulley  is  to  make. 

Example:  What  would  be  the  diameter  of  the  driven  pulley  making  375  revolutions  per  minute,  if  the  driving  pulley 
is  24  inches  in  diameter 'and  makes  125  revolutions  per  minute? 


24  X  125 


375 


=  S  inches  in  diameter. 


3.  Tn  find  the  number  of  revolutions  of  the  driving  pulley  when  its  diameter  and  the  diameter  and  speed  of  the 
driven  pulley  are  given,  multiply  the  diameter  of  the  driven  pulley  by  its  revolutions  and  divide  the  product  by  the  diame- 
ter of  the  driving  pulley;  the  quotient  will  be  the  speed  of  the  driving  pulley  expressed  in  revolutions  per  minute. 

Example : 

S  X  375 

=  125  revolutions  per  minute.

4.  To  find  the  diameter  of  the  driving  pulley,  multiply  the  diameter  of  the  driven  pulley  by  the  number  of  its 
revolutions  per  minute,  and  divide  the  product  by  the  number  of  revolutions  of  driving  shaft;  the  quotient  w'ill  be  the 
diameter    of  the    driving    pulley    requircMl.     Example: 

S  x375 

=  24  inches  in  diameter. 

125
